It is the most common non-skin cancer in men. It’s the second-leading cause of cancer death in American men. And it’s the 2nd most common type of cancer in the US. It’s Prostate cancer.  

And black men are more than twice as likely to die from prostate cancer as all other men. Family history plays a huge role in determining the risk. Here’s the catchy part – you don’t often see the symptoms of prostate cancer until it spreads. 

So what are the symptoms, can it be detected early and treatment is available? There is good news – Most men diagnosed with prostate cancer can still live long lives.
